Interactive web-based service gives operators holistic view of plant thermal performance
As competition among power sources continues to grow, optimizing GTCC plant performance and ensuring efficient operations are becoming more important. Plants need to reduce operating expenses, especially fuel costs. Mitsubishi Power used its expertise to create TOMONI® GTCC Performance Diagnosis that monitors throughout the plant and delivers performance data, diagnostics and engineering insights to develop action plans. GTCC Performance Diagnosis uses a comprehensive thermal cycle digital model to provide comparisons between current and previous plant performance..
